While the exact origin of the game of Chess is a
mystery, the Chess Club for Kids and Teens at the Royalton Hartland
Community Library will help unravel the way it is played.
Every
Tuesday at 4 p.m. beginning October 6, the Chess Club will meet in the
upstairs Community Room to take on the challenges of Chess.
Played
for centuries in many cultures all over the world, Chess builds
decision-making, strategy and communication skills that can be carried
over and used on the sports field and in school. Kids and teens can
learn the basics or sharpen their skills even more at the weekly
meetings.
There will
be introductory lessons for beginners and multiple games going on at
each meeting, so Chess players of all levels will be put to the test.
Snacks will also be served.
No registration is needed for Chess players, and parents are welcome, but not required to attend.
For
more information about the Chess Club, call the library at 735-3281.
The Royalton Hartland Community Library provides residents a variety of
programs, events and materials that are listed on the library’s website
at www.RoyHartCommunityLibrary.com .
